      Verdict

      Enola Grey had the measure of both Ledger and Pembrokeshire when successful here last time but had earlier been beaten by INVERLOCHY over track and trip. The latter also beat Clipsham Gold when winning at Chelmsford before that and the hat-trick beckons for the Crisfords’ charge. Bobby Joe Leg has been in the mix over 7f here lately but has yet to win over this far.
